5 Tips for Stating Motivated Tips 3-4


5 Tips for Stating Motivated
Tips 3-4

3. Set Attainable Goals
If you’re having trouble writing a 25-page paper for class because it seems like such a big job, don’t focus on that final number. Break the paper down and consider each section of your paper individually. You can handle any project in small chunks.

4. Find a Social Support Network
Create a group of people around you who want to help you succeed. Mentors can be teachers or family members who can give you guidance and help you develop new skills. Counselors can help you with planning your courses and starting to explore colleges. You can also reach out to friends and peers who can motivate you by listening and sharing ideas.

5. Acknowledge Your Accomplishments
Give yourself a quick reward when you complete an assignment or task. Take a walk, send an email, get a snack. Then move on to the next project.

Student Success Statement


Student Success Statement

“When you believe you can-you can.”

-Dr. Maxwell Maltz

Reflection: I agree with Maxwell Maltz. Anyone can succeed as long as they think positive and believe that they can. When you don’t let all the negativity get to you and as long as you try hard enough you can succeed in your own life goals. Sometimes people don’t know why they haven’t succeeded and maybe it’s because they don’t truly believe that they can. NO one can achieve something if they don’t believe that it’s possible. When you believe that you can you are letting all the negativity in the world slide past you to make room for the positive side that helps you with your hopes and dreams.

Balancing High School and Part-Time Work Part 2


Balancing High School and Part-Time Work
Part2
Voicing goals to someone else can help you make decisions and figure out your priorities. It can also help you judge whether you can do both—work together and study—successfully. To help answer this question, ask yourself:
·       Am I an organized person?
·       What kind of study habits do I have?
·       Do I make god use of my available time?
·       Will I be able to manage my schedule effectively if I take on a part-time job?
Think about the pros and cons of working. On the plus side, a job can teach you about commitment, time management and responsibility—and, of course, handling money. On the minus side, a job can cut into the time you have for sleeping, studying and socializing.

Use college search to look up a specific college’s academic requirement to be sure you are on the right track to attend the college of your choice.
If you have concerns about your class schedule or progress in school, set up a meeting with your school counselor, teachers or adviser. There are many resources to help you with this process, and with achieving your personal, college and career goals. Without goals you meander all sorts of directions. Goals give you purpose, direction, enthusiasm, and passion for that which you really desire.Define your goals deliberately, evaluate your goals often and make changes as necessary, work hard to achieve your goals, and continue working hard until you actually do reach your goals.

7 Habits of Highly Successful Teens
Habit 1
Habit 1: Be proactive.
Being proactive is the key to unlocking other habits. Help your teen take responsibility for her life. Proactive people understand that they are responsible for their own happiness or unhappiness. They don’t blame others for their own actions or feelings. Proactive people realize that the ball is in their court, that they are the captain of their own ship that they are in control, control of their decisions, thoughts, choices, goals, actions, and priorities. Proactive people are self-starters; they don’t wait to be told what to do, they press forward with enthusiasm toward the achievement of their assignment, their duties, their responsibilities, their obligations. Choosing to do what is right is a proactive decision. Obey the rules. Obey the law. Obey the coach. Obey the school policies. Obey your parents. Obey with exactness, and graet things will come to you. be proactive and take the initiative.
